The Splendors of Cambodia

This charming yet confounding kingdom seems to cast a spell on visitors. An adventure to Cambodia will inspire travelers to contemplate what happens when ancient and modern worlds collide.

Siem Reap has reinvented itself as the epicenter of chic Cambodia, with backpacker party pads, hip hotels, world-class dining experiences across a range of cuisines, sumptuous spas, great shopping, local tours to suit both foodies and adventurers and a creative cultural scene that includes Cambodia's leading contemporary circus.

Phnom Penh is the vibrant capital of Cambodia. Situated at the confluence of the mighty Mekong, the Bassac and the great Tonle Sap rivers, it was once considered the 'Gem' of Indochina. The capital city still maintains considerable opulence with plenty to see. French colonial mansions and tree-lined boulevards amidst monumental Angkorian architecture conjure a certain provincial charm and tranquility.

Battambang, Cambodia's second-largest city and the former capital of Monton Kmer, was founded in the 11th century. Located in northwest Cambodia, the city is situated along the Sangker River, a tranquil, small body of water that winds its way through Battambang Province. As with much of Cambodia, French architecture is an attractive contributor to the city's peaceful vibes.

Local Experience

There's nothing wrong with relaxing while on vacation but one would be remiss if they didn't experience the local cultures and flavors in the streets and alleys around their hotels.
